Lu Erbai wanted to laugh out loud, but when he realized where he was, he quickly shut his mouth.

He nodded heavily. “Of course. We have to make up for the first fourteen years.” As he spoke, he sighed. “I was a little worried when I first arrived. I was afraid that you’d blame us for coming over without permission. You’d be angry.”

“I was indeed a little angry at first. I went through so much trouble to hide it and even went to the prefecture myself just to not let you know. In the end, you came as you pleased and even came with your family. What if something happened?”

Lu Erbai said, “We’re also worried that something might happen to you on your way to exile.”

Shu Yu didn’t say anything. She lowered her head, hid her surging emotions, and began to eat quietly.

Only then did Lu Erbai begin to talk about their journey here.

Shu Yu never expected that the people who saw her were Scholar Tang and Mrs. Tang. They recognized her the moment she raised her head.

Speaking of which, she had only met them a few times. Did they have such good memories?

She was furious and scolded Xiang Weinan in her heart.

Just then, Meng Yunzheng returned.

“Uncle Lu, it’s getting late. If Lady Lu doesn’t go back now, it will arouse suspicion.”

Lu Erbai hurriedly stood up.”Then I won’t say anything more. Yu, take care of yourself. We’ll be following up with you from tomorrow onwards. Don’t be afraid.”

Shu Yu nodded and closed the food box. Then, she said to Meng Yunzheng, “Thank you for bringing my father to see me. Thank you for your trouble. However, I have something to trouble you with.”

“Whatever you say.”

“I don’t feel like walking anymore. Tomorrow, I want to get a prison cart and sit inside it to pull it away. Help me tell the officer in charge to cooperate.”

Lu Erbai was speechless. Prisoner carriage? Yu, how dare you think so?

Meng Yunzheng was speechless. “You did what you said.” He thought.

He laughed and nodded. “Alright, tell me, what do you want to do?”

“Two days ago, after I sent the officials, the Shu family knew that my journey would be smooth. At least I don’t have to worry about food and occasionally receive special care. It rained yesterday, so they didn’t try to get close to me. Today, they came to test me. I reckon there will be one tomorrow. I hate them too, so I might as well take this opportunity to make them give up and relax a little.”

Shu Yu wasn’t afraid of walking and had never thought of taking the prison carriage.

After all, she wasn’t an important prisoner. It was obviously against the rules to have an official give her a prison carriage.

However, it was not impossible. As long as the money was paid, it would not be a problem.

It had rained heavily two days ago. Although she had changed into new shoes, her feet were still soft and itchy from the rain. It was rainy in the southwest, so there might be many more similar situations.

Since she had the ability and the conditions, she should let herself live a better life.

Meng Yunzheng naturally agreed. “Then what do you plan to do?”

“Tomorrow, when the Shu family comes looking for me, I’ll pretend to be agitated and start to go crazy. My emotions are very unstable, and I might have violent tendencies or thoughts of killing.”

Meng Yunzheng and Lu Erbai fell silent again. Crazy?

“In short, if I continue to walk with the Shu family, there might be irreparable consequences. It’s best to get me a prison carriage and lock me up alone. That way, it’ll be good for you, me, and everyone else.”
